6 Dog Adoptions Only PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND SIGN Please understand that the dogs we have at our shelter have come from abuse/neglect/abandonment cases. This means that your new pet is likely to have some underlying issues as a result from their bad start at life. The majority of dogs just need to know that they are loved, and be given the chance to trust humans again. There are some cases in which you may feel the need to return the dog to our shelter due to issues. We ask that, if this situation should arise, that you try a few options first. One being to try and work with the dog yourselves. Love, patience, and consistancy will go a very long way. If this doesn t work, or isn t possible, we ask that you seek a professional to assist you in dog training. We can provide you with some dog training facilities that we have worked with in the past and have had great success with. Shelter dogs are not always ready-made dogs. They have had a very tough start, and deserve to be shown that they are worth fighting for. By signing below, you agree to be fully responsible for your newly adopted dog/puppy, and agree to exhaust all options as far as obedience, and/or specific professional dog training, before contacting us about returning your new dog. IN THE EVENT THAT YOU HAVE EXHAUSTED ALL OTHER OPTIONS AND DO NEED TO RETURN THE DOG TO OUR SHELTER, WE REQUIRE AT LEAST A 2 WEEK NOTICE BEFORE YOU RETURN THE DOG TO US. THIS GIVES US TIME TO MAKE ARRANGEMENTS SO THAT WE WILL HAVE A CAGE AVAILABLE. Disclaimer of Representation or Warranty: I agree that no representation or warranty has been made by Humane Society of Richland County as to the suitability or safety of the dog I am adopting. I specifically acknowledge that dogs as are all animals are unpredictable in behavior and that the dog may bite or attack resulting in serious bodily injury, injury to property or even death. I agree that in adopting a dog I accept such risk and that the Humane Society of Richland County, its officers, employees, agents, volunteers, contractors and board of directors shall in no way be held legally accountable and that I shall indemnify Humane Society of Richland County, its officers, employees, agents, volunteers and board from directors of any and all claims. (please initial) Release and Waiver of Liability In consideration of being permitted by Humane Society of Richland County to adopt a dog, I hereby agree that I will assume full responsibility for the death, personal injury, or property damage suffered or sustained by me or any third person as a result of or in connection with my adoption of a

7 dog. I agree, therefore, to indemnify Humane Society of Richland County (and its Officers, Employees, Agents, Volunteers, Contractors and Board of Directors) from and against all liability, claims, demands, damages, judgments, and costs for or arising from my death or personal injury or damage to my property, suffered or sustained by me as a direct or indirect result of my adoption of a dog; even if such death, personal injury or property damage arise out of the negligence of Humane Society of Richland County or its Officers, Employees, Agents, Volunteers, Contractors and Board of Directors. I further agree that I will not make any claims against, sue, attach the property of, or prosecute Humane Society of Richland County (and its Officers, Employees, Agents, Volunteers, Contractors and Board of Directors) for any death, personal injury, or property damage, whatever the cause or place of the event giving rise to the claim, which I may suffer or sustain as a result of or in connection with my adoption of a dog. In addition, I hereby release and discharge Humane Society of Richland County (and its Officers, Employees, Agents, Volunteers, Contractors and Board of Directors) from all actions, claims or demands that I now have or may hereafter have for any death, personal injury, or property damage arising out of or in connection with my adopting a dog. This release of liability is intended to discharge in advance, Humane Society of Richland County (and its Officers, Employees, Agents, Volunteers, Contractors and Board of Directors)from and against any and all liability to me or any person claiming under, through or on behalf or either of me arising out of or connected in any way with my adoption of a dog even though that liability may arise out of negligence on the part of Humane Society of Richland County(and its Officers, Employees, Agents, Volunteers, Contractors and Board of Directors). I further understand that the behavior of animals is sometimes unpredictable and that some dogs are capable of inflicting serious personal injury or death, as well as extensive property damage. Knowing the risks of handling dogs; nevertheless, I hereby agree to assume those risks and to release, indemnity and hold harmless Humane Society of Richland County and persons mentioned above who might otherwise be liable to me for damages. It is understood and agreed that this Indemnity, Waiver and Release of Liability is intended to be binding on me and my heirs, distributes, guardians, legal representatives or assigns. I HAVE READ THIS PROVISION CAREFULLY AND FULLY UNDERSTAND ITS CONTENTS. I AM AWARE THAT THIS IS AN INDEMNITY, WAIVER AND RELEASE OF LIABILITY AND A CONTRACT BETWEEN Humane Society of Richland County, MYSELF, AND I SIGN IT OF MY OWN FREE WILL.

8 HEALTH AGREEMENT CONTRACT I understand that The Humane Society of Richland County has no veterinarian on staff and that said animal is free from infection to the best knowledge of the staff. However, I accept that the animal may be harboring viral and or bacterial infections unknown to the staff. I acknowledge that if the animal becomes ill, I have two options available to me. The first option being that the animal is returned to The Humane Society of Richland County where it will be up to the shelter s discretion if and how the animal will be treated. You may also contact the shelter to determine further action. HSRC may suggest taking the animal to Phillips Animal Hospital for assessment and or treatment. The second option is that I will take the animal to the veterinarian of my choice and incur ALL expenses that arise from said illness after which I will still be contractually obligated to keep my appointment to have the animal sterilized and pay the adoption fee. If you choose to have the animal sterilized at your own vet, at your own expense, you must make this known to the shelter staff and it must be approved. You will be required to provide documentation of the sterilization within 90 days or we will ask that the animal be returned to the shelter. By signing below you are stating that you agree to these terms and conditions. Signature of Applicant Date
